“LGBT VOICES” IN VILNIUS

“LGBT VOICES” IN VILNIUS

After the opening of the symbolic rainbow crossing, the National LGBT* Rights Organization LGL would like to invite the local LGBT community and allies to the community event of LGBT Voices. This event is a unique opportunity not just to spend some time together, but also to talk about the LGBT “umbrella” and the differences between our varying identities. A panel will be held featuring people belonging to various LGBT subgroups – gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender. What do we have in common, and how do we differ? Does the Lithuanian LGBT movement include and represent the interests of everyone under the LGBT umbrella? Does this umbrella give us unique solidarity and resilience, or are we just individual members of society who have little in common? Our hostess Okeanide will be helping our participants respond to these and other complex questions, as well as looking at issues relevant to the community from a new persepctive: is a bearded man in a skirt an appropriate character to express the LGBT community’s political demands?

Participants in the discussion will also be able to enjoy the tastiest cocktails in the city from Pavilijonas. The evening will conclude with an acoustic performance by a rising star who is a proud part of our LGBT community! It is going to be legendary!
